In short: being on this list means you can sit the Mains, not that you are selected. Keep checking upsssc.gov.in for the Mains date.
Read the cut-off for your own category. The UR, OBC, EWS, SC and ST cut-offs are different from the special-category cut-offs.
If your PET-2021 normalised score was zero or below, the notice says you were left out of this list.
Outstanding sportspersons have no separate cut-off. They are counted in their own original category.
Do not trust a Mains date you see on social media. This notice does not give one, so check upsssc.gov.in.
This list uses PET-2021 scores only, so look up the right PET-2021 details when the website asks for them.
